Dera All,

I got a problem, my coding was below:

func yoyo() {
for true {
//TODO something
time.Sleep(3000)
}
}

func main() {
go yoyo()

//In here i begin a http server
}

I found my goroutine does not pause in the sleep position, is it the
coding got some problem as there?

Regards,
Singo

If you're running it on the go playground, it's because time doesn't
actually work there. Otherwise, what do you mean by "it does not pause
in the Sleep position"? How long do you want it to pause for? What is
happening instead?

3000 nanoseconds is 3 millionths of a second. How can you
tell that yoyo didn't pause?

3 seconds = 3e9 nanoseconds
